Adobe Photography Updates for June 2020 - New Versions of Lightroom Classic, Desktop and Mobile. New Version of Photoshop
Adobe has just released a new round of updates for its photography applications, including all versions of Lightroom and Photoshop. Here are some of the key features in this new release.
Lightroom New Features
Lightroom Classic has been updated to version 9.3. This new version includes some tweaks to the user interface for the curves adjustment, the colour adjustment as well as adding anew hue adjustment to the selective editing tools.
The New Tone Curve UI and Colour UI in Lightroom Classic
The New Hue Adjustment for Local Adjustments in Lightroom Classic
New Sync UI
The Sync UI has also been changed and given its own icon to the right of the module list at the top of the interface
Another big new feature (for Lightroom Classic and ACR) is the ability to create ISO adaptive presets. This means that you can create presets that have different settings depending on the ISO of the image that you are applying them to. I will have a tutorial on this feature in the near future.
In Lightroom classic the new defaults system has been further expanded with the addition of new presets to streamline the process. Adobe have a detailed blog post about this new feature. Raw defaults are now available in Lightroom Desktop and Mobile as well as Lightroom Classic.
In Lightroom Desktop (Desktop and Mobile) you can now share your edits as an interactive edit to the wider community, and the learning section has been expanded with more content. Lightroom Desktop and Mobile also gets the ability to add watermarks on export (only text for now) and watermarks are synced across services. In Lightroom for iPad iPad you can now “edit in Photoshop” if you have Photoshop installed on the iPad.
For the full details of what’s new see this detailed post on Adobe’s blog.
Photoshop Updates
Photoshop also received an update today on both the iPad and Desktop (as did most of the creative cloud applications) and you can find full details here. The biggest new feature is improvements to the AI based selective editing tool.
New Icons
The entire creative suite has also gotten a visual identity overhaul, and all of the applications feature a new icon design, including Lightroom, Lightroom Classic and Photoshop, as well as the creative cloud icon itself. You will see these once you update.
